MindsEye Studio Build a Rocket Boy Reportedly Shutting Down

Did you hear the news about Build a Rocket Boy? The studio behind MindsEye looks like it might be shutting its doors for good.

According to reports, the developer is seemingly closing after another round of layoffs. The clearest sign? Multiple staff members have taken to social media over the past 24 hours to share farewell posts. When developers start saying their goodbyes online, it's usually not a great sign for the studio's future.

For those who haven't been following, Build a Rocket Boy is the team behind MindsEye. The studio had already been through layoffs before this latest round, and now it sounds like things have reached a breaking point.

The farewell posts from staff are the main evidence here. These aren't official announcements from the company, but when a bunch of employees start posting their goodbyes within a single day, it paints a pretty clear picture. It's a pattern we've seen play out with other studios in recent years.

At this point, there's no official confirmation from Build a Rocket Boy about a full closure. The report is based on those staff posts and the layoffs that preceded them. But the writing seems to be on the wall.

If the studio does close, it raises questions about what happens to MindsEye and anyone still working on it. For now, though, we're in wait-and-see mode until something official comes out.

We'll keep an eye on this one and update you if we hear anything more. In the meantime, what do you think about the situation? Are you surprised to see another studio possibly closing down? Let us know in the comments.
